ES Journal - 2021/2022

I’m with ya Speedy… in more ways than one. ;)
The reason I posted live calls along with reason for entering … was to be used as a learning tool as so many say it’s impossible to win in short term trading and make a living at it. When I started out, broker platforms used to think I was nuts when I asked them if they carried the Es mini.. they had no idea what the instrument was, nada! Mutual support was even more rare.
Took me bit better than 10yrs to become consistently profitable where I expected to make money every day. Like Qtrader20 said, lean miserable years with no support .. blood sweat and tears along with an unfettered belief in yourself to figure it out…. I feel it’s my duty to pay it forward just a little… as there have been many that stopped short just a year or 2 away from success due to life’s grinding ways, family pressure & capital running out. Life’s very short, May as well develop a craft you love and provides you true independence… that’s what I’m in it for… not material things like my buddies whom have all the toys and 6 cars.. it’s about freedom and being thankful & benevolent when you can!
Good trading all!

Not overly bearish here short term. As long as ES is trading above 4266.75 we have potential for more upside than some people might imagine. Trading much below that though no good for longs imo.

EDIT: This is actually classic TA. ES Daily closed right below Daily resistance Friday(4382) and than this pull back goes real close to the Opening price bar of that huge move up on Daily and now we rally. I only have 1 MNQ long runner though.
 
4281
Ordinarily I'd pull out the magic pencil and come up with a # below that and say buy it here.
Not tonight.
Btfd.
4281 will work just fine. If you can hold on thru the night.
 
The pencil comes in not that much lower anyway.
About 4271
The pajama traders could easily knock it that low. And the nervous nellies on the Euro-open.
Other than that... we're going up.

Monday / Tuesday pretty important. We need to keep trading above 4266.75 and eventually work our way back up that last relative high we made and clear ES Daily resistance at 4376 currently. Candle closing below 4266.75 on the Daily chart sets up a complete fail of this buy setup.

Going to try and hold my MNQ runner here for next couple of hours and see if we get some good movement up.
